Giant victory for freedom: U-turn on smoking ban as Holland ALLOWS lighting up in 2000 bars and pubs
I have been fighting these bans for years as totalitarian, which is exactly what they are. These are the state destroying the notuon of private property so that they can implement any rules they want, anywhere they want to create whatever the utopia-du-jour is, and we all know how well those work out.
At last, Holland, a nation I truly begin to believe has a more solid grip on the notion of individual rights and freedoms than perhaps even the United States at this time, is reversing the anti-freedom smoking bans we have seen sweeping the Western world. Except of course if its a Muslim owned bar or restaurant. Then somehow, it is interfering with their cultural right to smoke if we ban it in their establishments.

Smokers in the Netherlands will now be able to light-up again in over 2000 of the country’s small owner-operated bars or pubs.
The partial over-turning of the blanket ban, which was introduced in 2008, is a huge victory for for smokers’ rights campaigners who had argued that the blanket ban was driving small bar owners out of business.
An incoming coalition government in the country has allowed the partial lifting of the ban for pubs which are less than 743.5 sq ft in size and which are staffed solely by the owner.
Light up: The Netherlands is the first country to partially overturn its smoking ban. Smokers in small bars and pubs will now be able to light up without fear of a fine Continue Reading →‘Sexual predators’: Gang of Asian men weep as they are jailed for total of 32 years for abusing white girls as young as 12

A gang of Asian ‘sexual predators’ were jailed yesterday for abusing white girls as young as 12.
The five men preyed on their victims over several months and threatened them with violence if they refused their advances.
One of the men branded his victim a ‘white bitch’ when she resisted, while a second smirked: ‘I’ve used you and abused you.’
Mohsin Khan, 21, left (jailed for four years) and Razwan Razaq, 30 (jailed for 11 years) were convicted of a string of sexually related offences against girls as young as 12
Umar Razaq, 24, left (jailed for four and a half years) and Zafran Ramzan, 21 (jailed for nine years), prowled the streets looking for girls, attacking them in parks and in the back of their cars
Adil Hussain, 20, was jailed for four and a half years
The men, all British-born Pakistanis, attacked the four girls in play areas, parks and in the back of their cars, Sheffield Crown Court heard.
They gave them gifts and introduced them to their friends. The girls were abused so frequently that after many months it ‘became a way of life’.
The girls, who were being monitored by social services, were eventually rescued by police and removed from their homes amid growing concerns for their safety.
Two of the men wept in the dock yesterday as they were jailed.
Judge Peter Kelson QC told them: ‘I’ve listened to the backdrop of some of you sobbing – I have to say your weeping cuts no ice with me at all.
‘You had what you regarded as your fun, now you will take your punishment.’
The five, Umar Razaq, 24, Razwan Razaq, 30, Zafran Ramzan, 21, Adil Hussain, 20, and Mohsin Khan, 21, were found guilty of a string of sexually related offences against the girls, one aged 12, two aged 13 and one aged 16.
Ramzan was found guilty of raping the 16-year-old girl in her own home, and the other four were found guilty of sexual activity with a child. Continue Reading →
Women prisoners in Iran
CTV had the courage to actually do a bit, albeit a horribly watered down bit, on what women in Iranian prisons face, and in a way, sort of linked it to Islam when really, it should entirely be linked to Islam and the full extent of the horror imposed on women prisoners there based on the sharia and absurd notions of the afterlife and how women should be treated so that it will effect that post corporeal existence. In any case, kudos to CTV for even going this far in the totalitarian days we live in now as far as the media goes.
“The Devil Made me do it” Suspect claimed stealing under spell

Saudi jurists debate role of magic in crime
Exorcist said suspect stole 100 million riyals under a spell
RIYADH (Khaled al-Shaei)A recent case in which a judge claimed stealing 100 million while under a spell stirred controversy among lawyers and jurists over the possibility of accepting magic as a legal defense argument and the means to verify the involvement of a jinni in a crime.
Even if several scholars testified to attending the exorcism, the judge should not make magic a legal argument 
A heated debate over committing crimes while under magical influence ensued during the proceedings of a corruption trial that involved several employees in the Medina Court including one of the judges.

Legal advisor Saleh al-Khedr
A statement by a man who claimed to have performed a roqia (Islamic exorcism) on the suspected judge ignited the controversy. The ‘exorcist’ told the Saudi newspaper Okaz that the judge was possessed by a jinni and was under his influence while taking bribes to cover up for illegal possession of land and real estate.
For legal advisor Saleh al-Khedr, being possessed by a jinni or an evil spirit does not absolve the culprit of blame.
“Human beings are responsible for their actions,” he told AlArabiya.net. “Claiming to be possessed is just an excuse to evade punishment.”
Khedr called upon judges not to include magic in the proceedings of the case even if the suspect insisted or the ‘exorcists’ testified that the suspect was possessed.
“Even if several scholars testified to attending the exorcism, the judge should not make magic a legal argument.”
The exorcist who allegedly forced the evil spirit out of the judge’s body said the process was carried out in the presence of members of the Medina branch of Committee for the Propagation of Virtue and Prevention of Vice. Continue Reading →

Women and Islam in Afghanistan
I had so many catchy title ideas for this one. “Think of all the great restaurants” or, “Feminists for Islam, a just alliance” or several other facetious title ideas. But to be honest I am just too damn angry to play games with it. Women who support Islam perhaps deserve they get. And what they get is slavery till suicide by self immolation.
Thanks to KitmanTV for doing this one.
Beverley Giesbrech dies with her comrads, who kidnapped her.
Remember Beverley Giesbrech? The Canadian woman who after 9/11 decided the Muslims are right and Western civilization was wrong, converted to Islam and started a pro-Jihad web site? The woman who went to Pakistan to meet up with, and help out the Taliban, who promptly kidnapped her for massive ransom and threatened to kill her if it wasn’t paid, so she begged the infidel Canadians she had been trashing on her website for years to bail her out?
Well she is dead.

Report: Canadian abducted in Pakistan dies
Published: Nov. 4, 2010 at 1:38 PM
WEST VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 4 (UPI) — A Canadian freelance journalist kidnapped in Pakistan has died, an Indian newspaper reported.
Khadija Abdul Qahaar, 58, of West Vancouver, British Columbia, “died following prolonged illness in the custody of the Taliban somewhere in northwest Pakistan or Afghanistan,” The Indian Express reported.
Her death was not independently confirmed and the newspaper did not name its source or sources for news of her death, nor did it indicate when she died.
Qahaar, known as Beverley Giesbrecht before converting from Catholicism to Islam, was frail when she and two Pakistani men were kidnapped in November 2008, The Vancouver Sun reported Thursday.
Her unidentified captors demanded a $150,000 ransom for her and released video footage of her pleading for her life. Continue Reading →
Gutless gay groups attack ally, encourage enemies.
Here is a story that actually typifies pretty much all leftist groups not just gays. The same sort of moral cowardice is seen in womens groups and pretty much all activist groups today. A gay group has decided to greet the pope with a kiss in, in order to show its contempt for the Catholic Church’s stance on homosexuality, although it does not ever act against gay men per se, and hell as I understand it, half or more of the Vatican itself is gay, meanwhile it does absolutely nothing about Islam or it’s leaders who advocate, and indeed bring about, the death of gay men.
Like womens groups, they seek to destroy natural bulwarks against Islam because it is safe to do so while avoiding and even defending Islam making criticism of it sacrosanct.
It also needs to be said:
The Catholic Church is a voluntary club. You do not have to be a member, and it does not impose its values outside of its membership. The Muslims will kill homosexuals whether they are Muslim or not.
Meanwhile, here is a photo taken by ‘Girl on the Right’ during a pro Hamas, anti Israel rally in Toronto a couple of years back. Another suicidal move by gay groups showing that have no real clue where their own interests lie.
From the EU Observer:

EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS – The gay and lesbian community in Barcelona is preparing a two-minute kissing session in front of Pope Benedict XVI to express their “discontent” over the anti-gay stance of the Catholic Church.
The event, advertised on Facebook as a “Queer Kissing Flashmob” is to take place on Sunday (7 October) morning, in front of the Gothic cathedral in the city.

“The Pope is coming to Barcelona, and his Holiness is the head of an institution which has traditionally been an enemy to sexual rights for those who practice non-reproductive sex and those who don’t love in church-approved ways. Consequently, we have decided to stage a protest to express our discontent,” the Facebook page says.
The organisers invite participants to bring people of their own gender and to start kissing for two minutes as soon as the head of the Catholic Church enters his Popemobile and kicks off the procession to the Sagrada Familia, the Gaudi church under never-ending construction. Continue Reading →
STRATFOR: Taliban leaders make conditions for end of war
From WWW.STRATFOR.COM
November 4, 2010
Several high-ranking Taliban leaders met in late October to discuss their conditions for ending the war in Afghanistan, an unnamed source close to the Taliban said, Afghan Islamic Press reported Nov. 4. The leaders agreed on seven articles that would be presented if the West asked for talks. The leaders said the United States should release all prisoners from Guantanamo; release Taliban detainees from Bagram, Pol-e Charkhi and other prisons; remove the names of Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan leaders from a U.S. blacklist; announce the withdrawal of all U.S.-led foreign forces within two months; cease all military operations throughout the country; recognize the Islamic Movement of the Taliban as a political party; and replace the Afghan Constitution with Islamic law. The source said the leaders would be flexible once talks began and that they want to open a dialogue with Washington before the government in Kabul joins. He reiterated that the conditions were the unofficial Taliban position.

Conservative Senator, Usual Opposition Suspects Meet With Imam Zijad Delic & Muslim Brotherhood Student Association
Imam Zijad Delic of the Canadian Islamic Congress gets booted from a DND function on Oct 4th because of his organizations radical Islamist stance.
On October 29th Imam Delic met with Conservative Senator Salma Ataullahjan and the usual assortment of Liberal/NDP apologists in the House of Commons. But that’s not all…
Who were these Senators and MP’s hosting? Why the MSA, the Muslim Student Association. What is the Muslim Student Association?
There is overwhelming evidence that the MSA, far from being a benign student society, is an overtly political organization seeking to create a single Muslim voice on U.S. campuses—a voice espousing Wahhabism, anti-Americanism, and anti-Semitism, agitating aggressively against U.S. Middle East policy, and expressing solidarity with militant Islamist ideologies, sometimes with criminal results.
